Game is released, he is gone men.

I really doubt that they could lose 1 million subscribers from a video that has 160k views and roughly 40/60 like/dislike ratio..

That actually makes sense...but I could fucking swear I saw 2.1 million. That's why I posted it, I thought it must be pretty mainstream with this subs count. I don't suppose there is some sort of analytics page where you can track their subs curve?

Oh well, the backlash in the comments and the damage control is epic at any rate.

Don't drink and brew, kids.

Why don't the screencap my posts? I say bad things about alt-right all the time!

There is a site called Socialblade which tracks Youtube subscribers and estimates earnings.

It's true tho, balancement seems broken, expecially if you abuse training with Cpt. Bernard.

It wouldn't be that much of a problem with a better AI that flanks and attacks, in group, the player.

i see the dodge perk and the weapons are poisoned so wjy it's strange?

Oh wow I was off as fuck. They actually gained some subs.

Probably from queers, soyboys and little bitches.

They really have to thank divine providence that this game's development cycle was completed during a release drought because there's no way this buggy tech demo would have sold as much had it came out alongside another major title.

Good concepts, decent execution but terrible polish.

well, at this points it's years that the top selling games on steam are unfinished early access titles
releasing a complete game with no bug apparently it's irrelevant for the sales.

Because there guys are all try hard edgelords who are trying to milk the release for video views. There are even people who edit games' files just so that they can have glitch material for videos. Not that I'm saying that's the case here.

Some of the tryhard edgelords have 4M subs.

Maybe you drank too many Savior Schnapps and couldn't read.

So many excuses, so many far fetched accusations, being a delirious fan boy does this to you folks, it's a serious disease with low chances of recovery and shares similar symptoms with that of a brown-noser, best to avoid the patient

- It's February! Here's your RPG
Is it good? Is it good? Is it good?
(swallows bugs, glitches and unbalanced combat)..... - Yes. It's good.
- Come, there is more of main quest left!
- *sigh* ....there still more main quest?

You are far too late to fight the good decline fight, son. The Codex loves Oblivion contrary to what it says.
Witcher 3, with Oblivion level level scaling, with Oblivion level broken combat BUT IN PRETTY is GAME OF THE YEAR here. Nay, AR PEE GEE of the year.
Kingdom Cum could be worse than Hillary and it would be sung praises for riding horses and killing things...
Its long over. There are literally people in this thread who say they larp Henry how the devs intended and its all dandy.

The 'Pickpocket" option intrigues me. :D

Some folks in this thread even told me to ''artificially'' limit myself to make the game more difficult, the generation of everyone get's a cookie, what you got 19th place? Just pretend you got first place, job done. Basically the devs couldn't be arsed to work making sure the majority of gameplay was interesting, so you do it.

How much does Warhorse make off these sales. Vavra said he wanted to sell 3 million copies but if all the profits go to his investor that hardly guarantees a sequel. And even if the investor doesn't just take the money to pump somewhere else they will still be impeded by a higher hierarchical third party.

How much does Warhorse make off these sales.

Steam takes about 30% off and Warhorse have to pay taxes too. I'd say maybe 50-60% of the sales is a net profit.
No idea about their deal with Deep Silver for console distribution but Vavra said on Facebook they have more money from Steam sales.

 

[imweasel]

How much does Warhorse make off these sales.

Nobody really knows. Warhorse has some kind of distribution and finance deal with Deep Silver (now THQ Nordic), so they will probably get the biggest chunk of the profits. Steam gets 30% in royalties. Sony and Microsoft get royalties too.

My "guesstimate" is that 15 - 30% of the revenue goes directly to Warhorse, Deep Silver/Valve/Sony/MS/other investors get the rest.

afaik steam is between 30-40%, I assume 30% is the bargain given to long term partners whereas 40% is the regular price. Consoles companies do typically eat 50% in total.

Deep Silver is probably more of a contractor than anything but Warhorse does have a publisher who funded the entire game and if it turns into a drama like New Vegas that would be a shame.

Don't you idiots know? Medieval combat was about looking your enemy in the eye and waiting for them to attack so you could block them in slow motion to do a master strike.

All the peasants in this game are master fencers. Also, it seems that the fanboys of this game also have that "LMAO DUDES, BUGS ARE FUNNY NEVER PATCH THEM HAHA SO FUNNI XDDD" thing going on, that Bethestards also have.

Yall forget about that Czech Billionaire who gave them 10 million $$. If he so much as leaves crumbs for warhorse to nibble on this would already be a very good deal for them.

IIRC he's a majority shareholder in Warhorse, so the company technically gets everything.

 

[Lycra Suit]

Where would you read that?

Interesting. That would mean that Vavra and his business partner sold their souls to a billionaire for funding.
